A federated database system (FDBS) is a collection of cooperating database systems that are autonomous and possibly heterogeneous. In this paper, we define a reference architecture for distributed database management systems from system and schema viewpoints and show how various FDBS architectures can be developed. We then define a methodology for developing one of the popular architectures of an FDBS. Finally, we discuss critical issues related to developing and operating an FDBS.read more

Algorithms for structural schema integration
TL;DR: The authors introduce a new integration technique called structural integration, which permits integration of objects that have structural similarities, even if they differ semantically, and introduces algorithms for structural integration.

A translation protocol achieving consensus of semantics between cooperating heterogeneous database systems
TL;DR: The proposed approach offers flexibility (for example, it can be used for building object-oriented wrappers and interfaces which access legacy relational systems), DBMS independence, and reusability of inter-model (schema) translation results.

Web service-based specification and implementation of functional components in federated ERP-systems
Nico Brehm,Jorge Marx Gómez +1 more
TL;DR: The paper presents the reference architecture of a federated ERPs system which allows the distribution of ERP system components on the basis of Web Services and shows how these Web Services can be developed and provided by different software vendors.

Data Integration by means of Object Identification in Information Systems.
Mattis Neiling,Hans-Joachim Lenz +1 more
TL;DR: This approach utilizes properties, which can be derived from the data sources used for identification the derivable attributes of pairs of records from two sources, in order to link them or not.

HODFA: an architectural framework for homogenizing heterogeneous legacy databases
TL;DR: A novel flexible architecture to dynamically connect such localized heterogeneous databases in forming a homogenized federated database system and to support the process of transforming a collection of heterogeneous information systems onto a homogeneous environment is presented.

The entity-relationship model: toward a unified view of data
TL;DR: A data model, called the entity-relationship model, is proposed that incorporates some of the important semantic information about the real world and can be used as a basis for unification of different views of data: the network model, the relational model, and the entity set model.

A comparative analysis of methodologies for database schema integration
TL;DR: The aim of the paper is to provide first a unifying framework for the problem of schema integration, then a comparative review of the work done thus far in this area, providing a basis for identifying strengths and weaknesses of individual methodologies, as well as general guidelines for future improvements and extensions.
